Les terroirs viticoles ont une histoire

Abstract

L’historien repart d’une définition scientifique, rigoureuse et récente du terroir viticole. “Un terroir viticole est composé de plusieurs unités homogènes : éléments géologiques et pédologiques (texture, granulométrie, épaisseur, nature minéralogique, composants chimiques), géomorphologiques (altitude, pente, exposition), climatologiques (pluviométrie, température, insolation)”. Absent de cette définition, l’homme est heureusement réintroduit un peu plus loin. En associant la viticulture et la vinification, il forme un “couple” avec le terroir et ce couple. L’historien se propose de réexaminer les relations de ce tout au long de deux millénaires d’histoire. Il veut montrer que le choix de localisation des vignes, celui des cépages et celui des techniques de viticulture ne furent pas ou peu guidés, jusqu’à une période récente, par des qualités ou des virtualités objectivement reconnues à des terroirs précis. Des contraintes et des motivations extérieures au milieu physique ont été beaucoup plus déterminantes. Elles furent économiques, tout particulièrement commerciales, mais aussi politiques, juridiques, sociales, voire culturelles.

Volatile composition of base wines to obtain sparkling wines from seven autochthonous grape varieties from Castilla y León (Spain)

The aim of this work was to characterize the aromatic profile of white and rosé base wines for the elaboration of sparkling wines from seven autochthonous grape varieties of Castilla y León. The ‘Albarín’, ‘Godello’ and ‘Verdejo’ white grape cultivars contribute with more fruity notes than the ‘Viura’ and ‘Malvasía’ cultivars; and ‘Prieto picudo’ coloured grape cultivar has more fruity character than ‘Garnacha’.

Soil and topography effects on water status and must composition of chardonnay in burgundy & a mini meta‐analysis of the δ 13C/water potentials correlation

The measurement of carbon isotopic discrimination in grape sugars 13 at harvest (δ C) is an integrated assessment of water status during ripening.

Mixed starters Schizosaccharomyces japonicus/Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a novel tool to improve the aging stability of Sangiovese wines

In the present work Schizosaccharomyces japonicus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae were inoculated simultaneously or in sequence in mixed fermentation trials with the aim of testing their ability to improve the overall quality of red wine

Green Vineyards: skills development for wine industry personnel: responding to the challenges of climate change

A fair and sustainable society, with a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy cannot be achieved without a workforce to support it.

Beyond liking scores: the importance of the drinking experience to understand our consumers

The presentation will approach the understanding of wine consumers´ perception based on the experiential model suggested by Warell (2008). In this framework, wine consumption gives rise to a
variety of experiences related to the perception, understanding, and judgment of the product. These
multidimensional facets of the drinking experience can be explored by measuring affective, cognitive,
and sensory responses of consumers, which are shown to be stable regardless of the social context.
